Whether you're a reptile enthusiast or just curious about Australia's incredible wildlife, this video gives you a front-row seat to the unexpected encounters happening right here in Sydney. RED-BELLIED BLACK SNAKE The red-bellied black snake (Pseudechis porphyriacus) is a species of venomous snake in the family Elapidae, native to Australia. The red belly is one of eastern Australia's most commonly encountered snakes. It has glossy black upperparts, bright red or orange flanks, and a pink or red belly. It is not aggressive and generally retreats from human encounters. Common in woodlands, forests, swamplands, along river banks and waterways the red-bellied black snake often ventures into nearby urban areas. It forages in bodies of shallow water, commonly with tangles of water plants and logs, where it hunts its main prey item, frogs, as well as fish, reptiles, and small mammals. The snake is a least-concern species according to the IUCN, but its numbers are thought to be declining due to habitat fragmentation and decline of frog populations. COMMON TREE SNAKE Dendrelaphis punctulatus, also known commonly as the Australian tree snake, the common tree snake, and the green tree snake, is a species of slender, large-eyed, diurnal, non-venomous snake in the family Colubridae. The species is native to many parts of Australia, especially in the northern and eastern coastal areas, and to Papua New Guinea. It is readily recognised as it is an agile snake with a very slender body and tail. The dorsal body colour varies from golden yellow, to bright green, to olive-green, to black, sometimes even blue. It is frequently pale yellow on the throat and belly, but other pale colours have been noted. Blue flecks are present on the flanks. The eyes are large, with typically golden-coloured irises and large round pupils. DIAMOND PYTHON The diamond python (Morelia spilota spilota) is a subspecies of carpet python (Morelia spilota). The diamond python is a medium to large snake, found in coastal areas and adjacent ranges of south-eastern Australia. It is the most southerly occurring python in the world and is found at higher altitudes than any other species of Australian python. It is quite variable in colour and pattern, typically being predominantly dark olive to black in colour with most dorsal scales having a yellow (or cream) spot in the centre). Along the body and tail are numerous clusters of yellow or cream scales that form "rosettes" that look a bit like diamonds. The underside is white, cream or even yellowish in colour, although it is often spotted with black. The diamond python is typically inoffensive by nature and generally reluctant to bite. This python is an ambush predator with large territories that often overlap. It moves around these territories seasonally to occupy well camouflaged positions in the warmer months and brumate in the winter months. Females have ranges up to 50 ha (120 acres); males may occupy areas almost twice as large. The diamond python is often active during the day and on warm nights, although a lot of its time is spent waiting in ambush for passing prey. M. s. spilota constricts and suffocates its food items, and preys on lizards, birds, and mammals as large as possums. MARSH SNAKE Bites from this species have been known to cause severe local symptoms such as pain & swelling, with more general reactions such as headaches and nausea also recorded. Fairly uniform brown, olive or black above with dark grey or black belly surface. Two prominent narrow pale-yellowish stripes on each side of face, one running from snout, through eye and onto neck area, & one below eye running from snout to corner of mouth. BROWN ANTECHINUS Small native carnivorous marsupial, greyish-brown above and paler below. Long pointed head with bulging eyes and four pairs of small sharp incisor teeth. Ears are large, thin and crinkly with a notch in the margin. Tail is the same length as the body or shorter and is sparsely haired. It weighs up 71 grams. 00:00 Intro 01:36 Red Belly 1 catch 03:20 Red Belly 1 Release 05:29 Common Tree Snake 06:53 Diamond Python Talk 08:45 Diamond Python Release 11:14 Red Belly 2 catch 12:20 Red Belly 2 Release 12:45 Marsh Snake Talk 14:00 Brown Antechinus
